How can pressure impact the alignment of minerals within the rock

Physics
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
6 0
Metamorphism occurs because some minerals are stable only under certain conditions of pressure and temperature. When pressure and temperature change, chemical reactions occur to cause the minerals in the rock to change to an assemblage that is stable at the new pressure and temperature conditions.

Lina20 [59]
The mass number of an isotope is the sum of the numbers of protons and the numbers of the neutron. Given that the mass number is 65 and the number of neutrons is 35, the number of protons is 30. The atom is then Zinc (Zn). The charge is equal to +2, as it lacks 2 more electrons.

Two ice skaters stand in the middle of an ice rink. Drew has a mass of 75 kg, and Lily has a mass of 55 kg. Drew holds Lily, and
ss7ja [257]

PART a)

Before Drew throw Lily in forwards direction they both stays at rest

So initial speed of both of them is zero

So here we can say that initial momentum of both of them is zero

So total momentum of the system initially = ZERO

PART b)

Since there is no external force on the system of two

so there will be no change in the momentum of this system and it will remain same as initial momentum

So final momentum of both of them will be ZERO

PART c)

As we know that momentum of both will be zero always

so we have

P_1 + P_2 = 0

75(v) + 55(2) = 0

v = 1.47 m/s in opposite direction

Example No. 10

The force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

<h3>Force constant of the spring</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy,

K.E = U

where;

  • K.E kinetic energy of the elevator
  • U is elastic potential energy of the spring

¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²

mv² = kx²

k = mv²/x²

Where;

  • m is mass of the elevator
  • v is speed
  • x is compression of the spring

k = (2000 x 8²)/(3²)

k = 14,222.2 N/m

Thus, the force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.
